'Ina Garten seems different, in a good way, than the other female personalities on the Food Network. Genuine, unaffected, quietly comfortable with herself. I used to allow her giggle to annoy me but i...
Yeah I get impressions and I don't see them on the page but I do see the words from the page AS impressions of images in my mind's eye. I think my mind does this searching for patterns.
Ohh that's what I look for. You should do it.
Ohhh that's interesting! :) You post implies you seek the meaning of the search for meaning...
I trash talk a lot when I play video games too. :) Silence isn't what I need; but for some reason when someone tells me what I should do my heels dig in as a reflex and I feel compelled to stop...
Hahahahahahahahahahahahah this is great. The existence of this thread is soooo INTP. I never do either. It would be a technical loss of integrity. An allusion to the folklore of the middle ages...
I agree. And sex works well too. Short circuits the verbal, opens up other modes of perception. When I am stressed out, or sad, or unable to understand what to call what I feel except that it...
Ok is a personal one but this is the place to share what frustrates us.... Ok. When I am having an intimate session...when I am really in the pocket so to speak, sexually, with my partner, not...
yo.... what is up with that?!?! People who can't stand being alone are weird to me! Like beyond clingy. Unable to thrive unless they are leeching onto someone. What creeps me out is trying to...
Made sense to me on the second read through. It's about expectations. I think lot of our social issues arise from the INTP sensing a disparity between who/what she is and the exterior state...
I let spiders live. I'll cohabitate with them any day.
You've injected some meaning/value into mine, just now. I feel like i could cry. Ooooof. . . .Okay, it passed. I want to look into your eyes and shake your hand, brother. Essentially, you're a hero...
Bless their extroverted feeling hearts. Painful is the word. And I make it more painful by being incapable of small talk so I respond in the only respectful way that occurs to me: delve into their...
I am equally confused about this phenomenon; sorry I have no answers to offer. But I experienced the same thing. At age 10, I'd stroll up to the completely cute boy, and introduce myself and say...
Sadly, INTP females are likely to be pressured into taking some kind of medication at some point because something seems to be wrong with them. Man is defined as a human being and a woman as a...
Till now I always got by on my own, I never really cared until I met you. And now it chills me to the bone. How do I get you alone http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Cw1ng75KP0&feature=fvw
are you talking about facial expressions specifically?
Few things truly piss me off, but facebook used to. I unsubscribed It says something-- I'm not sure what, but it says fundamentally disturbing that almost everyone is on facebook.
Awwwww.... this is beautiful, guys.
Amen. It's like a tennis player who studies the footage of the matches he has played regardless of the outcome of the match, or because of, or in spite of. The end point provides some context. But...
Cutest. post. ever. :)
I got your jarring right here. Jar this. (_/_) (_|_) (__) :shocked: Excellent point: INTPs can seem creepy and jarring.
I know this is off-topic, but it's a valuable point to note in any event. Hiring a sitter in order to introvert is as justifiable a reason as any, in my book. I think INTP parents are especially...
I have been frustrated by the unshare-ability of the word pith/pithy. Not only does it mean something great that other words' meanings only approximate, but it also holds potential for a...
Ok, I don't totally comprehend the difference between Fi and Fe but I am reading a lot of posts on here and I am starting to catch on. If someone feels particularly able to elucidate the theoretical...
Wow, this forum is validating! Happiness = knowing that I know something. The feeling I get from this has no equal. I wonder if Js get this feeling all the time....perhaps it feels more...
I think there exists a category of people that finds INTPs attractive. Not only have I experienced this phenomenon firsthand, but if there is any genetic basis to personality, then our sheer presence...
^5 hahahaha I was ABOUT to post this. I even creep myself out.
I received (drumroll please...........) An ANTFARM. :) I am waiting for the ants to arrive by mail. I sent off for them today. I also received a Rubik's cube. Good times. I spend waaaay more...
Instead of lazy, I'd echo this sentiment by saying I wish I knew how to better set short-term goals and motivate myself to reach them. :P (semantics, I know) And I DEFINITELY wish I were better...
Haha, a man after my own heart... I have learned to embrace this. I have been doing it my whole life. I think of it as keeping the farmland in my mind in rotation. Putting a non-fiction book down...
YouTube - I Am a Rock - Simon & Garfunkel Lyrics
YouTube - off he goes : pearl jam
VERY well said. Wow. This blessed me, forreal. I used to think there was something wrong with me because rarely does something move me to smile, or laugh. I am very playful, and I pride myself on...
oooh I looooooooved the Sting. I watched it with my dad when I was 12. And then I got the sheet music and taught myself to play the Entertainer on the piano. ^5
I can see an INTP being kind of alpha in the sense that they require no leader and no follower and are largely detached from the social game. So if you find an INTP actually within a pecking order,...
Ok, here goes : You know you're an INTP if the following expression of an inner monologue of a risk/benefit ratio analysis makes sense to you. Premise: Presence of OCD-like urge to correct...
Wow. Resonance. Nerd rage huh? It's hugely validating for me that you have named this. Thank you. Anthropomorphizing sucker fish = FAIL. I attended a Christian school and in the third grade I...
I tend to get headaches when I max out socially. Then I HAVE to retreat because I am puking. Good times. On the other hand, when alone, I can be rather oblivious to sensory cues such as hunger,...
Ohhhhh you are being all ESFJ now, I surrender.:wink:
Dilaudid IV push until I stop breathing.
I can only speak for myself here, but my gut says that if an INTP is married to you, he probably encountered a superlative degree of clarity and certainty about you before making the decision to...
This thread is amazing to me. I am, like, turned on now.:blushed: Male INFJ .......ooooof. Powerful stuff. Wow. This whole thread just slays me. I thank God for making the INFJ. (Me=female INTP)
I don't know about smarter than... I suppose I do know what you mean, but I still have issues with ranking one flavor of smart over another. One thing that makes me HAPPY TO NO END is when I...
My dad is INTP and I never knew I was so like him until I took the test for a class in college. But my interaction with him is nice because unlike talking with my mother or my sisters, when we have a...
I feel most comfortable in classic pieces that are timeless, simple, and high-quality. I don't own many clothes, but the ones I own mix/match well and I have no problem dropping money on something...
When the bulk of the guilt you feel in your interpersonal relationships refers to your ever-abundant honesty. Furthermore, you cannot honestly feel guilty about telling the truth so instead you feel...
Shopping A. I get pissed off when I have to face the situation of buying something with specs that I haven't figured out and researched ahead of time. B. Even more unpleasant is the experience...'
